Line 2:
* Averted in the ''[[Batman]]'' story arc "Prodigal"... eventually. Dick Grayson assumed the role of Batman while Bruce Wayne left Gotham to work on a case, the details of which were not made clear for some time. Several years later, in ''[[Batman: No Man's Land|No Man's Land]]'', the "case" was revealed as an excuse for him to secretly set up several mini-Batcaves throughout Gotham.
** In another comic where The Joker is on death row ([[Not Me This Time|for a crime he didn't commit, ironically]]) and a preacher tells him to confess his sins, the last one we the end of he says "...And that's the last time I ever used glass" whatever he did with the glass was so horrible it causes the priest to flee in terror.
** The 'One Year Later' circumstances that saw Jim Gordon once again become Commissioner of the Gotham City Police Department and Detective Harvey Bullock returned to duty despite having been kicked off the force previously, along with a shake-up of the department which saw the previous commissioner removed from office, ended up becoming one of these. Reportedly, it was supposed to be explained in ''[[Fifty Two|52]]'', but the authors of that series ended up following completely different plotlines.
* The purpose of [[Don Rosa|Don Rosa's]] ''[[The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck]]'' was intended to round up all of the Noodle Incidents mentioned in the stories by [[Carl Barks]] and create a biography for the character out of them. Rosa refers to these as "Barksian facts", and he has only had to leave out very few that are completely against the rest of the story.
* In the second volume of [[Scott Pilgrim]], one is implied in reference to Scott living with Wallace, though the story is somewhat explained later.
Line 28:
* A particularly literal case is found in volume 6 of ''[[XXXenophile]]'', after the villainess' main henchman is found trussed up and suspended. "Forgive me, Mistress. They had... macaroni."
* Several cases in ''[[Empowered]]''. Thugboy cosplaying, Thugboy wearing Empowered's suit, etc. Reason: Several storylines were (presumably temporarily) cut from the books, moved between books, etc.
* A ''[[Super Mario Bros.]].'' comic in the [[Nintendo Comics System]] has Wart from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' kidnapping King Toadstool. It's then implied that this has happened before:
{{quote|'''Mario''': Adding it all up, it's perfectly clear - Wart snatched the king... ''again!''}}
* [[Twisted Toyfare Theatre]] had [[Iron Man]] and [[Robert Downey, Jr.]] in court at the beginning of the story.
